J. M. Bailey, P. H. Fishman, and P. G. Pentchev abstract: Glucose 6-phosphate is metabolized by enzymes for which distinct anomeric specificitieshave recently been demonstrated. The mutarotation of glucose 6-phosphate was mea-sured by utilizing thereduced triphosphopyridine nucleo-tide coupled rate of oxidation with glucose 6-phosphate de-hydrogenase. This enzyme is specific for the ß anomer. The mutarotation was 240 times faster thanthat of aD-glucose measured polarimetrically under the same conditions. It was found that the higher rate was not caused by increased ring strain, since the activation energy for the mutarotation of glucose 6-phosphate (21.8 kcal/mole) was essentially the same as for D-glucose (22, 2 kcal/mole). The mutarotation of glucose
